Bridgestone Turanza T001 215/55 R17 71V Audi

They keep the road. Reliable. Quiet.

The tires appear wider for their size and in comparison to the Nexen Nblue HD Plus which they replaced. They are quite firm although they've been used for many years. The tires are from the 2015 production year, and I tested them under harsh conditions of heat, urban, and highway driving. During rain, low temperatures even at 0, at various speeds, surfaces, bumps, and turns - they performed excellently everywhere. There was no swaying, skidding, bumps, or anything like that. The car always felt confident, even during rain and at 110 km/h. The tires have been used for 8 years, 5 in France, and 3 in Ukraine. They have always been balanced without particular issues despite their respectable age. Now they are "retired."

I liked almost everything about it. I have been looking for a long time to put some tyres for the summer (Octavia A5 wagon). I read forums, listened to the advice of friends, but until I tried it I would not understand. Rubber is just fire. It is for our roads. Everyone who writes that it is not strong and the cord breaks simply does not know how to ride. If it were not for its rigidity and increased wear resistance, then the resource would be much less than that of competitors. Like it or not, the Japanese know how to do it (I have made in Japan, I think this is important). Aquaplaning is top notch. Very stable on wet roads. The seller focused on the fact that at long distances the rubber only becomes stronger due to the peculiarities of the manufacture of the sidewalls. Checked. Really powerful. And so for the year it brought me more positive than any soft summer tyres from competitors (I won’t name it out of ethical principles).
